Visualize Buffalo in 1901 through the eyes of the heroine of Lauren Belfer’s historical novel, City of Light. Approved by Ms. Belfer, this three-hour tour reimagines the illustrious city of Buffalo during the time of the Pan American Exposition, with its state-of-the-art skyscrapers, electricity and opulent parkways. The tour starts at Forest Lawn, where you’ll board the Forest Lawn trolley in front of the historic chapel. The tour will visit notable Buffalo locations as described in the novel and will conclude in the historic grounds of Forest Lawn, where you will see the final resting places of several illustrious City of Light Buffalonians, including John Larkin, Maria Love and John J. Albright. Seating is limited; reservations are highly recommended.
